Our retail plant nursery is located in the historic village of Hints near Tamworth (Staffordshire) As well as our mail order business we produce thousands of plants and hanging baskets for retail sales including bedding plants, shrubs, perennials, architectural plants. If you live locally then why not pay us a visit. As we grow most of the plants that we sell, our prices tend to be a lot more competitive than the local garden centre. Collecting Young Plug Plants displayed in our Catalogue and Website from our Nursery
Unfortunately, due to the large number of varieties of young plug plants that we sell we are unable to offer a ‘select your own’ facility at our nursery and ask that you place your order in advance so that we can reserve the plants and get your order ready for you. If you wish to collect your plug plant order from our nursery, please place your order online, select ‘click & collect’ as the delivery method and choose ‘pay on collection' as the payment method alternatively just give us a call so that we can reserve your plants for you.
